Streamlit Folium and FastAPI - Active Fires (with FIRMS and Nominatim APIs)

A web-app map designed to display "Active Fires" points detected in the last 9 days for a given country.

FIRMS API was used to query active fires data from the FIRMS - Fire Information for Resource Management System program from NASA, and Nominatim API was used to query the boundary of a selected country.

• Keep in mind that every query costs 972 transactions, therefore you can only query every 10' with one API Map Key. But the data is cached per query, so you can just change the country code to display FIRMS active fire points between different countries

This project is a combination of the two previous Streamlit-FastAPI projects which were created to demonstrate how to use the FIRMS API and the Nominatim API

Follow the setup guide below to try it out. Enjoy !!!

Setup Guide

1. Clone the repo

---

HTTP

git clone https://github.com/enguy-hub/streamlit_fastapi_activefires.git

SSH

git clone git@github.com:enguy-hub/streamlit_fastapi_activefires.git

2. Create and activate Python environment (conda or venv)

---

For CONDA environment (assuming conda or miniconda is already installed), run the following command at the root folder:

1. Create a conda environment from the conda_env.yml file:

   conda env create --file conda_env.yml

2. Activate the conda environment:

   conda activate stfapi

For VENV environment, perform the following commands at the root folder:

1. Create a python venv virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv

2. Activate the virtual environment:

   source venv/bin/activate

3. Install the dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Source: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/

3. Obtain the FIRMS API Map Key

Navigate to the following URL: https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/api/area/

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "Get MAP KEY" --> Enter your email to get the Map Key

4. Run the FastAPI server

---

Run the following command at the root folder:

uvicorn api.main:app --reload

The server will be available at http://127.0.0.1:8000/

5. Run Streamlit app

---

streamlit run stfapi_activefires.py

The app will be available at http://localhost:8501

Enjoy the app !!!

---

Deactivate Python intepreter environment (conda or venv)

---

For CONDA environment, run the following command:

conda deactivate

For VENV environment, run the following command:

deactivate
